Why Formation Flying is an Art and Science - Experienced From A Yak-52
Показать описание
I went flying in the back seat of a Yak-52 to find out all about flying in formation with a group of pilots calling themselves Dragon flight. This was specifically a practice session for a memorial flight for a recently deceased pilot featuring a missing man formation. This wasn't a military performance, just a bunch of experienced pilots with the required training doing flying close patterns in the sky, like they used to with their friend.
There's a lot of specialized techniques and terminology involved, a lot of understanding and management of your position, orientation, velocity and of course energy.
I flew with Hoagy, I brought the cameras, he flew the plane, narrated the process, and I filled in the gaps.
Music:
The Whole Other - 'Between The Drops'
Unicorn Heads - 'Vital Whales'
TrackTribe - 'Coastline'
Quincas Moreira - 'Airborne'
Jeremy Blake - 'Sunspots'
TrackTribe - 'Monument'
